re: Best bars & restaurants in Baton Rouge? Best places to tailgate? Will be in town

The Chimes/Serranos location just outside of campus is the place to start the debauchery to ensue. The campus starts across the street, and the whole thing is a party, you will not leave with an empty belly and a lack of adult beverages provided for lubrication. Downtown hotel take a taxi to campus for a few bucks to and fro for the day.
